A magnetic resonance imaging system is provided, which can provide the
homogeneous magnetic field to obtain a head anatomic image with a high
resolution and high SNR by coaxially disposing a receive-only phased
array antenna inside a transmit-only antenna with a predetermined gap,
and thereby a detailed and accurate image of a man's head can be
obtained. In the present invention, the system comprises: a transmit-only
antenna comprising at least two saddle quadrature antennas connected with
each other to form a ring shape, one of the connections being a joint and
the remaining connections being formed in an overlapping fashion; and a
receive-only phased array antenna comprising a plurality of receive-only
antennas connected with each other to form a ring shape, one of the
connections being a joint and the remaining connections being formed in
an overlapping fashion, wherein an inner diameter of the receive-only
phased array antenna is shorter than that of the transmit-only antenna,
and the receive-only phased array antenna is coaxially disposed inside
the transmit-only antenna with a predetermined gap.
